You are just making sh!t up without any basis in reality.

Go back to Post #71 and do more research on the numbers posted there. The U.S. saw GDP growth in the late 1970s and very early 1980s even when the FED rates were much higher than they are today. Not only that -- but the GDP growth rates were higher with FED rates above 5% than they've been for the last ten years when the FED rates were below 2%.

I'm not even an economist and I can understand this.

If you think a 25% fund rate would make the economy “go through the roof” then there is no hope for you. That is nutty.
